Description
1998-W Proof Gold Eagle 1/10 oz, NGC PF70. This exceptional example of the 1998-W Proof Gold Eagle represents the finest quality available for this popular fractional gold issue. The coin exhibits the characteristic mirror fields and frosted design elements that define the Proof American Eagle series, with pristine surfaces that have earned the coveted PF70 designation from NGC. The 1/10 ounce Gold Eagle, introduced in 1986, remains one of the most sought-after fractional gold coins for both collectors and investors. This West Point Mint specimen showcases the iconic reverse design by Miley Busiek featuring an eagle landing on a nest with an olive branch, paired with Augustus Saint-Gaudens' celebrated Liberty obverse. The 1998 date places this coin within the early production years of the series, contributing to its desirability among date collectors. NGC Certificate #9932 documents this coin's exceptional state of preservation, with no visible imperfections under magnification. The striking quality and eye appeal are outstanding, making this an attractive addition to any advanced Gold Eagle collection or proof set.
